Frosty Fun

"There's No Flakes Like Snow-Flakes"
We read the book Snowflake Bentley and made 100 snowflakes on the 100th day. The Snowflake Sisters by J. Patrick Lewis is also a great book to use with this activity.

"Snow Much Fun!" - we made a snowflake quilt
"Snowmen are a Little Flakey" - snowman work

a "100" cake for the 100th day

based on the book "The Jacket I Wear in the Snow"
We read the book "The Snowy Day."
I have, also, had the kids make a class book based on The Snowy Day. They made these pictures, but wrote or dictated a sentence about what they would do on a snowy day.

"Dashing Through the Snow" - a winter mural
We read The Mitten by Jan Brett. Students drew and animal on their mitten and wrote a sentence about what animal got into the mitten.
